Babajide Sanwo-Olu, Lagos governor, has fulfilled his
promise to meet with Oreofeoluwa Lawal-Babalola, a little boy who inspired the
viral “mummy calm down” video.
The governor met with the 4-year-old boy alongside his
family at his office on Saturday.
Oreofeoluwa had become an instant sensation on social media platforms after a video went viral of him in tears from his mum’s scolding while confidently telling her to “calm down” and give him a “last chance”.
The video had attracted the governor’s attention and he
requested to meet the little boy.
It had also inspired Sanwo-Olu’s Eid-el-Kabir message to
Muslim faithfuls and inhabitants of the state wherein he urged them to maintain
calm amid the COVID-19 crisis.
“The exchange was indeed funny, but it depicts the efforts
parents put in moulding children into responsible adults. I want to assume that
his mom indeed calmed down because the appeal was moving enough to make anyone
change their mind,” he had said.
Sanwo-Olu had also said that he would be acquiring exclusive
rights to “calm down” as a catchphrase.
Oreofeoluwa further left tongues wagging on social media
recently after he said he would love to be a police officer to fight corruption
during an interview.
“I want to be a police officer to fight corruption,” he had
said.
